Brann 3-1 St Mirren (agg 4-2): Analysis

Manager Robinson did not shy away from saying his side had to up the ante if they wanted to keep adding stamps to their passports.

He noted their bravery, their pace and their ability on the ball. Three qualities Brann showed within five minutes of kick-off.

Though it was the worst possible start for the Buddies, they did not buckle. Before they fell behind, Shaun Rooney had shanked a glorious close-range effort and while the visitors were under the cosh for much of the first half, they were hardly torn apart.

In the second, they were clearly on top and deservedly levelled. Despite their inexperience at this level, they were confident in their play and everything Robinson called for was implemented in a marked improvement from last week’s show.

St Mirren were brave, but when they maybe sniffed a vulnerability in Brann, the Norwegian hosts instead pounced in clinical fashion.

For the travelling support, their trips abroad - for now - are over. They will not forget the scenes that unfolded at Iacovitti's equaliser any time soon and can bounce back to Paisley with pride.

If the second-half performance is anything to go by, the passports will not be away for long.
